Softening market conditions and rising uncertainty in global trade and economy have impacted semiconductor spending from the world’s top OEMs, currently facing the steepest decline in over a decade. Worldwide spending from semiconductor OEMs will amount to just $316.6 billion in 2019, which is down 7% from 2018. The recent decline came after two years […]
Toshiba Memory Holdings Corporation (TMHC) is buying LITE-ON's SSD business for $165m. Taiwan-based LITE-ON supplies optoelectronics, storage, semiconductors and other devices. The company...
For many years now, transistors on our microchips have gotten smaller, faster, and cheaper over time. Every two years, the number of transistors on commercial chips has doubled — with this phenomenon becoming widely known as “Moore’s Law.” For several years in the recent past, Moore’s Law does not seem to hold true any longer. […]
Over the years, we have seen a wide range of advancements in semiconductor design services. The Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) announced that the...
